The Return of Stickmna #1433

I think you might have guessed the theme behind this week's strips. But tomorrow's strip might surprise you. I'm getting my stuff all prepped for the Jet City Comic Show this coming Saturday in Seattle. You will be able to find me at table AA06.

The Return of Stickman #1326 and Jet City 2011


It's hard to ignore news stories like this one when they happen in your town. This is not the first time I've heard of somebody asking their neighbors or friends who to get rid of a body. All I can think is that these folks were never in the Boy Scouts.

If you're a regular reader of this blog you might have noticed that there was no movie review posted yesterday. I never got around to drawing a review last weekend because I was busy attending the Jet City Comic Show. This is the second year I've attended the show and I will be in it again next year. Here are a few shots I took at the event.

My first sale of the day!




Jet City's mascot is Bomber Girl and this year she was played by Sierra McKenzie. You might have seen Sierra in some of my other photos. She is part of a modeling group that convention and trade shows hire to promote events or products.

My last sale of the day. The Brains! t-shirt was a big hit.

The Comic Critic will be at Jet City


On Saturday, September 24th 2011, The Jet City Comic Book Show is going to be held in Seattle at the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall located at 299 Mercer Street from 10am to 6pm. Tickets are only $8. If you pre-order your tickets you will receive a free Bomber Girl print by Matthew Clark. This will be the second year I’ll be attending the show. You can find me in the Artist’s Alley at table AA25.

I will be doing drawing/signing for those who buy my book. Almost everyone who subscribes to this blog knows what my book’s about. But, if you don’t, then check out this video.

It’s one in a series of reviews that tag into my book, “The Comic Critic Presents Seldom Seen Films.”

Special thanks to Adam the Alien for producing this and the other movie review videos for me, to Joe Izenman who created my jingle, and of course my good friend Joe Manfredini whose been my right hand man at so many conventions.

Jet City Comic Show Report and The Return of Stickman

I had a table at the Jet City Comic Show at the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall. This was the first year of the show and I'm proud to say that I pulled a profit, a modest one, but a profit all the same. The show kept me from posting a movie review this week, but I promise to have one ready for you next week. Here are some snapshots of the show and today's The Return of Stickman.
